An elongatedwall section 31 is joined to elongated side edge 20 of top panel 12,wall section 31 being shown herein as formed of inner section 32 andouter section 33 with a narrow section 34- spanning therebetween. A pairof spaced tabs 35 and 36 extend from inner section 32 and, upon properfolding of Wall section 31, the tabs are insertable into respectiveopenings 37 and 38 which pass through top panel 12.

Wall section 24 includes side edges 4% and 41 and end edges 42 and 43,side edge 41 being connected to elongated side edge 22 of top panel 12.Lockable arms 45 and 46 respectively extend from end edges 42 and 43 ofWall section 24. Wall section 25 is provided with substantiallyidentical component parts as wall section 24, and includes side edges 47and 48, end edges 49 and 50, and lockable arms 51 and 52. Tongues 53 and54 are cut out of common wall section 26 and are inserted throughrespective arm openings 55 and 56, thereby to lock the arms 46 and 52and end Walls 24 and 25 in the upright position shown in FIGURES 4 and5, hereinafter more fully described.

The bottom portion 13 includes a pair of wall sections 69 and 61, Wallsection 66 having side edges 62 and 63, and end edges 64 and 65, andwall section 61 having side edges 67 and 68 and end edges-69 and 70.Bottom portion 13 is provided with wall means generally depicted at 75,connected to bottom panel 14. Wall means includes a wall flange or panel76 having oppositely disposed side edges 77 and 78, side edge 77 beingconnected along a fold line to side edge 28 of bottom panel 14. Lockingtongues 79 and 80 are cut out of flange 76 and are respectively adaptedto lock within respective openings 81 and 82 which extend through arms66 and 71. Arms 66 and 71 are attached along fold lines to end edges 64-and 69 of wall sections 60 and 61, and when arms 66 and 71 are properlyfolded, tongues 72 and 81 are folded into locking engagement with arms66 and 71.

Internal portion 15 includes internal panel 16 having oppositelydisposed elongated side edges 85 and 86 and end edges 87 and 83therebetween. Side edge 85 of panel 16 is connected to flange side edge78 while an elongated lip 90 is attached to the other panel side edge36. Internal portion 15 further includes spring flaps 91 and 92respectively connected to end edges 87 and 88 of internal panel 16.Flaps 91 and 92 are provided with respective end portions 93 and 94creased along fold lines'95 and 96,

Cut out of internal panel 16 is a garment hanger having a neck portion191 and shoulder portions 1&2 and 1193, hanger ltltl being hingedlyconnected to flange 76 along its side edge or fold line 73. A fold line1455 extends transverselyof neck portion 161 permitting greaterflexibility of the hanger 106 during positioning of the coat garmentthereon, hereinafter more particularly described.

Any of several procedures of erecting the container 119 of FIGURE 2 fromblank 10 may be followed and one such procedure is readily understoodwith reference to FIGURES 1, 4 and 5, wherein top portion 11 is formedby first folding wall sections 24 and 25 .up- Wardly from top panel 12,folding arms 45 and 51 toward each other to a position generally inalignment with side I edge 26 of top panel 12, folding inner section 32up-'-.

wardly on bend line 32', folding narrow section 34 upwardly on bend line34' and folding outer section 33 on bend line 24 whereupon the innersection 32 is brought over and above locking arms 45 and 51 and tab 35and 36 are respectively inserted within openings 37 and 38 of top panel12, shown clearly in FIGURE 2. Arms 45 and 51 are nested between outerwall 33 and inner wall 32 to form wall angles 120' and 121, of topportion 11, wall angle 1% being formed between inner wall 32 and wallsection 24 and wall angle 121 being formed between inner wall 32 andwall section 25.

Arms 46 and 52 are folded toward each other generally in alignment withside edge 21 of top panel 12, tongues 53 and 54 are folded upwardly onrespective hinge lines 53' and 54', and the enlarged tongue ends 53" and54" are inserted Within respective arm openings 55 and 56 therebyforming self sustaining Wall angles 122. and 123 of top portion 11. Theprovision of the self sustaining wall angles 122 and 123 affords greaterrigidity and strength to container 110 and provides for fixed end walls24 and 25 for receiving therebetween end walls 60 and 61 of bottomportion 13.

Bottom portion 13 is formed by folding wall sections 60 and 61 upwardlyfrom bottom panel 14, folding arms 66 and 71 toward each other to aposition generally in alignment with wall flange edge 77, foldingtongues 79 and S upwardly on respective hinge lines 79' and S6, andinserting the enlarged tongue ends 79" and 86" through respective armopenings 81 and 82, thereby forming self sustaining wall angles 125 and126 of bottom portion 13.

The internal portion 15 is formed by folding flaps 91 and 92 upwardlyfrom internal panel 16 along crease lines 87 and 88, folding flap endportions 9? and 94 upwardly, folding lip 94 upwardly and folding hanger106 upwardly along crease line 105. Hanger 166 may also be foldedupwardly along hinge line 78 if desired as shown by the condition ofhanger 16%) in FIGURE 4. The internal panel 16 is folded upwardly fromflange 76 and flange 76 is in turn folded upwardly from bottom panel 14until the opened container 114 assumes the position shown in FIGURE 4.The internal portion 15' is moved in the direction of arrow 13%) tooverlie bottom panel 14 with spring flaps 91 and @2 extending towardbottom panel 14. Similarly, hanger 106 and lip 90 extend toward bottompanel 14 from top panel 16, all as shown in FIGURE 5.

The top panel 12 is folded upwardly from common wall 26 along hinge line23, common wall 26 is folded on hinge line 27 and top portion 11 ismoved in the direction of arrow 131 to telescopingly cover bottomportion 13 with internal portion 15 therebetween.

FIGURES 4 and illustrate the manner of packing container 116 withgarments, the garments being shown therein as trousers 135 and coat 146.The first step in parking container lltl is to position the seat portion136 of properly pressed trousers 135 on the bottom panel 14 with thetrouser leg portions 13-7 and 138 extending over one end wall, shownherein as end wall 6% of bottom portion 13. The hanger 11.66 is bentdownwardly at crease lines 73 and 165 and the coat garment 149 ispositioned with its shoulders 141 and 142 respectively engaging andoverlying shoulder portions 102 and 163 of hanger 166. After hangingcoat garment 146 on hanger 166, the bottom portion 143 and arms 144 and145 are smoothly positioned to extend into top portion 11, whereuponinternal portion is swung in the direction of arrow 136 over the upperportion 146 of coat 146 and seat portion 136 of trousers 135. The legportions 137 and 138 are folded upwardly over spring flap 91 andinternal panel 16, as indicated by arrow 139, whereupon leg portion 138rests on the upper face 150 of internal panel 16. The bottom coatportion 143 and arms 144 and 145 are folded upwardly over lip 96, asindicated by arrow 14S, and these folded coat portions rest on eitherleg portion 137 of trousers 135 and/or upper face 156 of internal panel16. By moving top portion 11 in the direction of arrow 131 the topportion 11 telescopingly covers the bottom, portion 13 with internalportion 15, trousers garment and coat garment 149 properly positionedand packaged therebetween.

Referring to FIGURES 3 and 5, the retaining action of spring flaps 9iand E2 is readily apparent. The resilient flaps 9 and 92 engage thetrousers garment 135 at spaced locations 160 and 161 and urges garment135 forcibly against the upper face 162 of bottom panel 14. It is to benoted that the flap end portions 93 and 94 which are creased along lines95 and 96 present smooth rounds or folds 163 and 164 for engagement withgarment 135 thereby minimizing any scraping or marring thereof due tothegarment encountering a raw or cut sharp edge of the fibreboard.

Similarly the flaps 91 and 92 which are creased along lines 87 and 88present smooth rounds or folds 165 and 166 around which the garment maybe folded. As shown in FIGURE 3, when the trousers garment 135 is foldedaround internal panel 16 and flap 91, the trousers portion 167 may becontiguous with round 165 without any marring or creasing thereat. Around or fold 17% is also formed by bending lip t) along crease line 36,and the round 170 provides a smooth surface for folding the coat garment146 as shown in FIGURE 5, thereby minimizing damage to the coat garment14%).

It will be noted that end extensions 171 and 172 of internal panel 16overlie portions of respective end walls 61 and 6th of bottom portion 13when internal portion 15 is in its folded position shown in FIGURE 5.The ends 173 and 174- of lip 90 are fittingly disposed inwardly ofrespective end walls 61 and 66 and reinforce and strengthen such endwalls when internal portion 15 is folded. The tapered ends 65 and 76 ofend walls 60 and 61 facilitate the closing of container 116 by topportion 11 telescoping over bottom portion 13. The wall angles 122 and123 are fixedly positioned to definitely receive therein the respectivetapered ends 65 and 76 of bottom end walls 60 and 61 to furtherfacilitate the closing of container 110.

The tongues 53 and 54 are preferably cut out of the common wall 26 sothat tongues 53 and 54 can partially occupy the respective cut outopenings 175 and 176 in common wall 26 when the top portion 11telescopes over bottom portion 13. Similarly tongues 79 and 80 are cutout of flange 76 so that they can partially occupy the cut out openings(not shown) in flange 76 when the internal portion 15 is folded into itsposition between top and bottom portions l1 and 13 as shown in FIGURE 5.With the locking tongues cut out of portions of the container which arefolded back on the tongues when container lift) is assembled and packed,the number of openings in the container and the degree of exposuretherethrough are minimized, thereby efiectively protecting the packedgarments therein.

Accordingly, while only a certain preferred embodiment of this inventionhas been shown and described by way of illustration, many modificationswill occur to those skilled in the art and it is, therefore, desiredthat it be understood that it is intended in the appended claims tocover all such modifications as fall within the true spirit and scope ofthis invention.
